Francis Xavier Ransdell : ウィキペディア英語版 | Francis Xavier Ransdell Francis Xavier Ransdell (May 23, 1861 – February 11, 1939) was a lawyer and judge of the 6th Judicial District Court, based in Lake Providence in East Carroll Parish in the far northeastern corner of his native Louisiana. He was the younger brother of three-term U.S. Senator Joseph E. Ransdell. ==Background==
Francis and Joseph Ransdell were born at Elmwood Plantation in Rapides Parish near Alexandria. During the American Civil War, a skirmish broke out between Union and Confederate troops in their yard. Their father sent his wife and children in a covered wagon westward to take refuge in Texas until the war ended. The senior Ransdell was accidentally killed in 1865 in the sugar mill on his plantation, and the family faced much difficulty during Reconstruction. Joseph helped his brother Francis through college〔The East Carroll Parish genealogy source does not give the name of the college that Francis Ransdell attended, but his brother Joseph studied at Union College in Schenectady, New York.〕 and relocated to Lake Providence in 1882 to live with a sister and to study law successfully in the office of Judge Field Farrar Montgomery, as then permitted at a time before law school graduation was required prior to taking the bar examination.〔
